"The Lives of Others" (Das Leben der Anderen)

Just watched a BRILLIANT film! It's a German film called "The Lives of Others" (Das Leben der Anderen) from 2006.

The plot outline from imdb: "In 1984 East Berlin, an agent of the secret police, conducting surveillance on a writer and his lover, finds himself becoming increasingly absorbed by their lives."

I totally agree; saw it when it came out and thought it was powerful.
